Responsible Gaming

Gambling Should Be Entertainment

We believe that gambling should only ever be enjoyed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you choose to gamble, please do so responsibly and within your means.

Remember: the odds are always in favour of the house. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.

Age Verification

In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to participate in any form of gambling, including betting sites.

We are committed to preventing underage gambling. If you are under 18, please do not use any betting services. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor young people's online activity and discuss the risks of gambling.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a gambling problem:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Gambling with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
• Spending more time gambling than intended
• Neglecting family, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount spent
• Feeling anxious or irritable when trying to reduce or stop gambling
• Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
• Borrowing money or getting into debt to fund gambling
• Failed attempts to control or stop gambling
• Risking important relationships, education, or job opportunities because of gambling

Self-Help Tools & Controls

Most responsible betting operators provide tools to help you gamble safely:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a session or time period
• Time Limits: Set reminders or automatic session timeouts to manage how long you spend gambling
• Reality Checks: Enable pop-up reminders during gambling sessions to track your time and spend
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from a betting site if you feel you need a break

Take advantage of these tools. They are designed to help you maintain control and gamble responsibly.
